Who we are
Rise Tennis Academy launched in 2021 in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. Running out of Snee Farm Country Club, the team is made up of some of the most prolific coaches in the country. Our team has developed numerous nationally ranked #1 players, sent hundreds of players to colleges and universities and also work with professional tour players. We have coaches for all players, ages, styles and goals.
Whether you are looking to come visit Charleston and join one of our competitive adult or junior clinics, or live nearby and are looking for your new tennis home, we’ve got you covered.
We view tennis players the way we view rocks in a stream. They have strength, sturdiness and a lot of rough edges. With our coaching, we provide constant resistance to make them more resilient, to help them smooth out their edges, and to illuminate their individual beauty as athletes. True coaching takes time and effort, and for those willing to jump into the water, we’re here to help you shine.
